TiAlN has been widely used in cutting tool coating due to its excellent mechanical and thermal performances. However, the research on the TiAlN coating effect on cutting temperature is not comprehensive enough. In this paper, the friction tests at elevated temperature and hard machining H13 hardened steel tests are conducted by using TiAlN coated tools and uncoated tools, respectively. The results of using TiAlN coated tools are compared with those from using uncoated tools. It is found that the coefficient of friction (COF) between TiAlN coated tool and H13 hardened steel is reduced to 0.63 at 800 °C. The COF value is 0.75 for uncoated tool. Under the same cutting conditions, the TiAlN coating shortens tool-chip contact length. The tangential cutting forces and cutting zone temperatures are decreased with smaller COF and shorter tool-chip contact length. Due to the lower thermal conductivities of TiAlN coating and the Al2O3 oxide layer formatted at tool rake face, the cutting heat conducted into cutting tool substrate was reduced. The cutting temperatures in TiAlN coated tool substrate are decreased by at least 10.68% in this study. The TiAlN coating reduces the cutting temperature by decreasing the cutting heat generation and conduction.

This study is developing environmentally friendly cutting technologies of difficult-to-machine materials by MQL (Minimum Quantity Lubrication) cutting with Ti-B coated tools. In this research, we performed cutting experiments of difficult-to-machine materials in dry, MQL and wet conditions with non-coated tools. Cutting resistance in the MQL cutting was almost the same as that in the wet cutting. Moreover, damage of the cutting tool was not observed after the MQL cutting. Therefore the MQL cutting is expected to become an advanced cutting technology by using Ti-B coated tools because Ti-B film had high temperature lubricating properties and high wear resistance.

The cutting performance of cutting tools in high-speed machining (HSM) is an important factor restricting the machined surface integrity of the workpiece. The HSM of AISI 4340 is carried out by using coated tools with TiN/TiCN/TiAlN multi-coating, TiAlN + TiN coating, TiCN + NbC coating, and AlTiN coating, respectively. The cutting performance evaluation of the coated tools is revealed by the chip morphology, cutting force, cutting temperature, and tool wear. The results show that the serration and shear slip of the chips become more clear with the cutting speed. The lower cutting force and cutting temperature are achieved by the TiN/TiCN/TiAlN multi-coated tool. The flank wear was the dominant wear form in the milling process of AISI 4340. The dominant wear mechanisms of the coated tools include the crater wear, coating chipping, adhesion, abrasion, and diffusion. In general, a TiN/TiCN/TiAlN multi-coated tool is the most suitable tool for high-speed milling of AISI 4340, due to the lower cutting force, the lower cutting temperature, and the high resistance of the element diffusion.

Abstract In this work, the main aim is to reduce the adhesion and wear that happened during machining of the Ti6Al4V alloy by employing volcano-like texture on the rake face of coated tool. A combination of experimental and simulative investigation was adopted. DEFORM-3D software with updated Lagrangian formulation was used for numerical simulation, and the thermo-mechanical analysis was performed using Johnson-Cook material model to predict the cutting temperature, cutting forces, chip morphology and tool wear. In cutting experiments, volcano-like textures with different area densities (10%, 20%, 30%) were fabricated by fiber laser on the rake face of cemented carbide tools close to the main cutting edge. Then, these textured tools were deposited with CrAlN coating through cathodic vacuum arc ion plating technique. Experiments in cutting Ti6Al4V alloy were carried out with the textured coated tools and non-textured coated tool under dry and wet cutting conditions. Then, the chip morphology, chip size and tool wear were investigated. The results showed that textured coated tools were superior to conventional tool. Especially in wet cutting, compared with those of non-textured coated tool, the adhesion area and the chip curling radius of the coated tool with texture area density of 20% (VCT2) were reduced by 31.2% and 49.7%, respectively. Therefore, VCT2 tool showed a better cutting performance. Finally, the mechanisms of textured coated tools under dry and wet cutting conditions were proposed.

The study is about an experimental investigation of the different factors influencing the temperature occurring at the coating/substrate and chip interface when machining Assab steels 760 and DF2 with two different coated carbide tools. Results show that tool temperature was higher when turning Assab steel 760. Temperature along the major flank face was higher that that at the minor flank. However, the magnitude of temperature was lower than expected with maximum only around 260 oC near the tool tip. The performance of Al2O3 coated WC inserts appeared to be better compared to TiN coated WC inserts. The cutting temperature was lower with alumina coated tools. While turning Assab DF2 steel, cutting temperature was lower compared to Assab 760 steel for the same coated tool.

Abstract Coupled with a thermo-mechanical metal cutting process, rapid tool wear, higher surface roughness and mass heat are caused by the rapid plastic deformation of the workpiece and by the friction along the tool-chip interface. This phenomenon is more predominant in the machining of difficult-to-cut materials. DLC film has been applied as coating material in the machining of difficult-to-cut materials, and shows a good cutting performance. In this study, Cr/W-DLC/DLC coated tools were compared with other three coated tools (i.e., TiC-, TiAlN-, Al 2 O 3 -) to investigate the cutting performance in the machining of Al-Si alloy (AC9B). In addition, the influence of Cr/W-DLC/DLC coated tools on the cutting performance under different cutting speeds was studied. Cutting force, cutting temperature, heat transfer coefficient of the rake face of the tool, cutting deformation rate, plastic deformation of machined surface, the interface temperature and stress were investigated numerically based on Finite Element Method (FEM). Actual cutting experiments were carried out to the verification of the FEM models by means of the cutting force and cutting temperature measurement. The investigation results showed that Cr/W-DLC/DLC coated tools has the lowest cutting force and cutting temperature, good cutting deformation characteristics and lower coating-substrate interface temperature and stress, however appears the maximum value of heat partition coefficient into the cutting tool. With the increasing of cutting speeds, cutting force and cutting temperature showed an increase trend, while the plastic deformation depth of machined surface and heat partition into cutting tool all showed a decrease trend. This investigation can provide the theory basis or technical guidance for the cutting practice of Cr/W-DLC/DLC coated tools.

In this study, FEM simulation of titanium alloy machining with micro-textured tool using Thirdwave AdvantEdge. Micro-scale textures on the rake face of the cutting tool is a single linear groove parallel to the cutting edge. Viewing simulation results ,derivative cutting did occur under the cutting parameters in this study. The tool-chip contact length decreases due to the existence of the micro-textures. Shear angle increases which indicates smaller deformation of the cutting layer and thus smaller cutting forces and cutting temperature. However, the derivative cutting effect increases the variations of the cutting forces. Therefore, strength of the cutting tool must be taken into consideration during the designation of the micro-textured cutting tool.

This paper contains an explanation for the variation of the “coefficient of friction” in metal cutting. The chip partly sticks to and partly slides over the tool and only in the latter region can friction occur. In the experiments, the contact area between the chip and the tool is controlled and the change in the size of the sticking region is observed. The ploughing force acting on the tool edge is taken into account and the force acting on the tool face is determined. It is found that the force on the tool face varies with the depth of cut and the contact length in a simple manner. From the variation of the normal and tangential forces the stress distribution on the tool face is deduced.

The wear behaviour in the precision interrupted hard part turning SAE8822 case hardened steel by BN250 PCBN cutting tool was studied. Experimental results showed that the main wear mechanism for the PCBN tool was the edge chipping by the fluctuation of cutting forces and cutting temperature. The oxidization and diffusion of the elements between workpiece and PCBN tool decrease the bonded strength between binder and cBN crystal, then lead to the damage of PCBN cutting tool.
